This Pub is Closed Long Term

Suburban standard Wetherspoon fare with dark interior and toilets that seem to be a good half mile away from the bar up a baronial hall style of staircase. Outside street seating provides a real hidden suntrap. 8 handpumps in 2 banks, each of 4. This Wetherspoon pub bears the name of one of England's greatest astronomers. Pub named after Edmund Halley, who gave his name to a now famous comet, and who lies buried in St Margaret's graveyard. Edmund Halley was born in 1656. His studies in astronomy and mathematics led him to be appointed a Fellow of the Royal Society, at the age of 22.

Closed on Friday 30th December 2022 with future now uncertain in its present guise.
